Willis - Galactic Escape lyrics

rate me

HOOK:

Can we stop time for a little bit?

All this stress, baby, I’m tryna get rid of it.

20,000 leagues under the sea, this is my medicine.

The waves crash, the wind blows.. so intimate.

You can’t find me after sundown,

And no, no.. I don’t ever want to come down.

Come down.. Come down.

No, no, I don’t ever want to come down.

VERSE 1:

Beautiful beaches where the street stops is replaced with sand,

And off and on I gaze at waves and they fade into land.

Where your stresses fade and you begin to understand,

That life is only random because of all the shit you planned. God damn.

When do actions take effect?

I guess I'm just a spec, I bet no one can see, they can't detect.

I don't expect to be inspected, or even respected.

Just not subjected to a selection, where there's no reflection.

I got a collection full of connections I could use but don’t...

Cause if I didn't make the mark myself then who would know?

Too indisposed to lift my nose at those who don't devote

a single molecule of energy towards matters of their own. I don't know.

Is being occupied a constant line?

Or should you take the time, decide what's really right, and what's assigned.. It's fine.

If I said passion could you define it?

If I said show me how I feel when I rhyme could you mime it?

If I gave you everything you need to recreate this, and I told you make the same thing that I made could you design it?

Looking for my purpose I wonder where ima find it.

Maybe I could see if stare at the horizon

All alone, the world is silent, can't even imagine violence

Even though I've seen it through the blinks of my own eyelids.

Been in a state of crisis but right now my mind is silent.

Cause all I see is ocean, on the surface sun reflection diamonds.

And no, no.. I don’t ever want to come down.

Come down.. Come down.

No, no, I don’t ever want to come down.

VERSE 2:

I told my momma have faith in me. then i faithfully..

graduated school. god damn. what a day for me.

Got home, and to celebrate I just made a beat.

Homies smoked an eighth of weed. Now they high as a plane would be.

Go to work for this beautiful girl I came to see.

Ironically this beautiful girl won’t go on a date with me.

Fuck it, gotta make another song. Record until my trache- bleeds.

Ima do this till I’m eighty three. Music what made me see..

this world is such a beautiful place to be what a place to live!

Incidentally i constantly want to get away from it.

46th back alley kings. Wanna fly out to Saturn’s rings.

Music happens magically. Life balances tragedy.

Once upon a time there was a little alien.

Nobody knew what to say to him, and he ain’t know what to say to them.

Depression eats away at him. His patience running paper thin.

Therapist slanging them pills at him trying to label it.

But fuck that he wasn’t tryna swallow em.

Throw a couple away every couple of days till he got rid of all of em.

Throwing’ a label on someones brain, thats insane!

My diagnosis is diagnosed pain.

Im tired of hiding in shame. Fuck it, lets ride in the rain.

And if I’m dying today, I hope I’m not in a cage.

I hope I fly into space. Contact an alien race.

And live eternally among the stars. Galactic escape. Aye.
